While my family was here over the weekend we also ventured through the rain to White Windmill Bakery & Cafe, one of the trendy Korean bakeries in town. This place has a great selection of baked goods, chocolates, cakes and teas and I noticed this visit that they also offer frozen yogurt (it looked similar to Yoforia's original flavor). The sweets here tend to be subtly sweet rather than over the top, and much of the offerings reminded me of my time in Japan. This is a neat place to take out of town visitors who are not familiar with Koren bakeries.

Grandma and Mom check out the pastry counter.

The bakery provides baskets to hold your goodies while you shop. My favorite pastry is the one on the left (I got two!). It's a sweet, crumbly dough with cream inside. Sometimes it has a slightly nutty taste. I had similar pastry in Japan so it brings back good memories.

Hi Virginia, Thanks for posting a comment. I'm very glad you enjoy the blog. White windmill has a few satellite locations in Duluth as well but the one on Buford Hwy. is definitely the largest one. Enjoy & let me know what you think.

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. Anyway, I'm been looking for topics as interesting as this. Looking forward to your next post.
